The Susie Forest
If you haven't heard about The Susie Forest you might be surprised to know that it is all around you! The Susie Forest has grown to over 300 trees, and not just in Spokane, but all over the world. Nancy MacKerrow, founder of The Susie Forest, has planted 200 trees in Spokane and is already starting on the next 100 trees in our area. These tree plantings provide an opportunity for people to commemorate an event or a person through celebration and/or to further the healing process in times of grief. At each planting, participants write their thoughts on tree-grams that are hung on the tree and everyone has a chance to enjoy Nancy's famous Tree-Kibble cookies.
Visit The Susie Forest Website and Blog for more information and contact Nancy MacKerrow for more information about planting a tree to honor your loved one or special event.
